For 30 Years, Our Patient Suffered with Teeth That Were Very Dark Due to Tetracycline Staining
Posted in Success Stories
Posted on April 12, 2023 by Dr. Gerald Marlin
Bharati had been a patient of Elite Prosthetic Dentistry’s for years before she decided to change her smile. She had suffered her whole life with teeth that were very dark and stained due to receiving the antibiotic tetracycline as a child before her permanent teeth came in.
Since tetracycline is a type of intrinsic staining, traditional whitening procedures are not an option for brightening the teeth. Therefore, Elite Prosthetic Dentistry aimed to transform Bharati’s smile with dental crowns.
The day we put in temporary dental crowns on her front teeth, Bharati had an immediate smile makeover and transformation. After placing her permanent dental crowns, Bharati says that she can’t stop smiling with her beautiful new, bright teeth. Watch her story here.
Through this commitment, Dr. Marlin provides his patients with long-lasting (35 years vs. the national average of 7-10 years) aesthetic restorations so that they have virtually no future problems.
As such, he is a leading specialist in dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, sedation dentistry , and restorative dentistry in the Bethesda–Chevy Chase, Northern Virginia, and Washington DC Metro Area. He has inserted and restored over 3,600 dental implants.
